Grace is a social climber who is extremely concerned with presenting herself as sophisticated and upper-class. Grace changed her middle name to "Windsor" from the original "Windkloppel" to hide her true origins; this disguises the fact that she is the only heir who truly is a niece of Sam Westing. She is not as shallow as she comes across, having married for love and not for money, but is determined that her daughter Angela will fare better in life than she did. (Grace does not understand her younger daughter, Turtle, and frequently neglects her or otherwise shows favoritism.) Using her interior decorating skills, she helps her Westing Game partner, James Hoo, fix up his shop with a new look and title (Hoo's on First), which helps it attract more customers. After Hoo goes into the paper insole business, Grace takes over Hoo's on First (now a restaurant chain going all the way to Hoo's on Tenth). According to Turtle, Hoo's on Tenth isn't as successful, but Grace keeps it going to be close to Jake.
